Notes on Shooting

Focusing on subjects may not be possible in the following cases, depending on the shooting conditions.

  • Low illumination, backlighting
  • In shadow
  • Considerably out of focus

Also, even if the camera recognizes the eyes of a subject, the camera may not be able to focus on the eyes properly in the following cases if there is significant subject movement.

  • Eyes are closed
  • Hair covering the eyes
  • Wearing of spectacles (sunglasses)

Focusing on subjects may not be possible in other cases, depending on the shooting conditions.

  • If it is not possible to focus on a specific area of the subject that you want to prioritize, such as the eyes, the camera may automatically focus on other recognized areas, such as the head or body of the subject.
  • Even if a white subject recognition frame is displayed around the face of a subject, the camera may automatically focus on the eyes or other areas of the subject.
  • If only a part of the subject is within the angle of view, the subject may not be recognized.

    • When only the hands and feet of a person or animal are visible
    • When a part of the subject is hidden and is not visible.
  • Depending on the situation, objects or body parts other than the subject may be mistakenly recognized as the subject.
